The Campus Master Plan: A Vision for the Future

The UW-Madison’s 2015 Campus Master Plan provides a roadmap for future development options from 2015 to 2025 along with design guidelines, updates to the 2005 campus utilities and transportation master plans, the first ever landscape master plan and a new stormwater management/green infrastructure plan for the 938-acre campus in downtown Madison. The overall plan was also the first ever City of Madison approved campus master plan as required by municipal ordinance, saving the university time and money on municipal entitlement processes. Gary Brown, Director of Campus Planning and Landscape Architecture in Facilities Planning & Management will discuss the overall goals, major initiatives and thoughts about moving forward in a post-pandemic higher education learning environment.
